  1. RE: c.im/@OccasionalDucks/11634546

    Same goes for tomorrow’s Red Cuthbert Day of Dance at Bedford Fringe Festival, should any mastodonians happen to be there, though it’ll be a different mallard on a different melodeon… come and say “hi” if you like.

  2. Just a day to go before Red Cuthbert Day of Dance, part of the Bedford Fringe Festival - five morris sides will be starting at the Faces on Silver Street at 1030, with various spots throughout the town until we finish at Riverside Square, 1530-1600. We’ll all be doing turns in the Quarry Theatre Garden between 1200 and 1330, and after the last dance spot there will be a music session in The Hidden Barrel.

    If you’re local, do come and see us & our fellow dancers!

    Red Cuthbert will be joined by Golden Hare, Letchworth Morris, Queen’s Oak and Wicket Brood.

  3. A good time dancing yesterday, including busking our way through Bluebells for a massed dance - none of us having done it outside an Ale in about eight years - and my finally almost getting Bonny Green (no one actually really knows it, do they?), good crowd reactions, and a nice social afternoon afterwards.
    The one video I took on the day, of Hemlock Morris dancing Hell’s Bells, to follow…

  4. We’re heading off to dance out in 20 minutes . We might be insane. I’m taking a rucksack full of chilled water rather than my usual couple of beers, mind.

  5. In other news, I’m off to Cambridge for a day’s morris dancing with Red Cuthbert today - we’ll be at the Cambridge Blue at 2pm, the Free Press at 3 and the Mill at 4.

    (And yes if you follow the link the poster should say “is” not “are” but I’m not the one who does that stuff any more so don’t blame me!)

  6. Please pay attention to this important message from our squire. I'm not sure how it took 49 weeks for me to get around to posting it!

    For some reason I couldn't add an alt text. It is a video of a man with a beard saying "Join Red Cuthbert and talk shit in the pub afterwards" and then cuts to a brass plaque saying "Bullshit corner" with a Red Cuthbert beermat tucked under the edge.
